The stock pads are pretty hard on the rotors. My 900 had a nice lip on them after only 30,000 miles, so I was in the same boat as you and felt that I had to replace the pads and rotors. I replaced the pads with ceramic pads, which have worn down the new rotors less in 60,000 miles than the original pads wore down the factory rotors in 30,000 miles. I'd get some different pads and replace the rotors this time. Hopefully next time you won't need to replace the rotors and can get away with just the pads. Are you sure that a machine shop couldn't just grind down the groove, though?
